Bolsters

Yoga bolsters are mainly used to lift and support the body, promoting deep and restorative type poses. The firmer a yoga bolster is, the less give you will feel when you lie on it. What is important is that the yoga bolster runs the entire length of your spinal column. You should feel muscular and tension relief as your chest, abdomen and back begin to relax and your rib cage begins to open. In this way you can control your breathing by monitoring inhale and exhale.
